It's time to give high-quality work totes to the individuals in your life who are headed to a whole new world of work life.

Reusable Kitchenware
One of the best ways to honor your graduate’s accomplishment is to give them a meaningful and useful gift that will be used in their home. You can put together a lovely gift basket with reusable, eco-friendly kitchen items like beeswax food wrap, metal water bottles, glass containers, stainless steel straws, ceramic plates, cloth napkins, etc. Recent graduates are already dealing with a lot of uncertainty when they join the workforce. A thoughtful gift like this can spare them the worry of utensil shopping. Plus, reusable kitchenware can also lessen the need for daily disposables, dramatically reducing the amount of waste.
Handmade Gifts
Making something by hand and using eco-friendly materials is another way to gift your graduate without having to make a purchase. Handmade entails creating items in small batches, which means a lesser footprint. Plus, it also reflects the sincere love and effort of the giver. Contrary to purchasing mass-produced goods, handmade presents are always considered special. Consider coming up with DIY gifts like bedazzling an existing jewelry item or a mirror, putting together a photo album, building small furniture pieces, etc.
Gift Cards
A gift card is one of the most eco-friendly gifts and also a smart choice if you're not sure what to purchase for your proud grad. Graduations signal the change from one stage of life to another, and gifts that can help with financial expenditure are especially welcome. While there are numerous directions you may go with gift-giving, gestures like grocery store gift cards, gift cards for home essentials, etc. can aid the graduate in adjusting to their new surroundings. You can customize your gift card suitably based on if your grad will take a gap year, embark on higher studies, or join the workforce.
